I was hoping for some horror, but this one will do. I'm looking forward to Nameless's next assignment, he was already on the way there when this first book ended. Edoardo Ballerini is a favorite narrator of mine and I didn't even realize he was narrating until the audiobook started. This six book series is called Nameless and I was able to download the audiobook with my Kindle Unlimited subscription. I couldn't help wanting him to have the greatest of success because his failure would allow bad things to continue. The man is literally nameless, not able to remember farther back than two years, only knowing this life of a vigilante nomad, with assignments to avenge and kill coming from another unknown person. But now there is a man who will set the future right, even if he can't change the past. Heck, he's decided he owns whatever he wants to take from surrounding areas, too. As far as he's concerned, he owns this this small town, the people in it, and the people who pass through it. This story shows a small town in my state of Texas in a bad light, with an extremely corrupt sheriff doing terrible things to others because he can. It is truly possible to make good friends on the internet and I'll miss chatting with Pat during my sleepless nights that were her Aussie days. So this review is the first of a six part series that I'm listening to (in order, sorry to be so common Pat.ha ha) knowing how much fun it would be to discuss it with Pat. I've never read Dean Koontz, behind the times that I can so often be, but I know that Pat liked this author a lot. There are a lot of things we call 'pulling a Pat' or a 'Pat-ism' and I'm glad we'll have so many ways to remember her. So I've decided to listen to a short story series in her honor although I'm breaking from her usual habit of starting a series midway, often without knowing it was part of a series, until she was already midway into the book. For years Pat has been a part of my everyday life, with us becoming friends through talk of books, dogs, rural living and other things, until those things didn't matter anymore. In late November several of us learned that our very good friend, Pat, from Australia, had died in her sleep.
